“Nikki was very responsive and sent picyures throughout my trip. My pup even had accidents. Thats right i said accidents with an s! And she was so sweet about it. My pup came home happy and i felt at easy the entire time. One less thing to worry about. I will rebook and i recommend you check her out if you need a dog sitter!”
“The boarding of my dog was fabulous. I got regular updates and photos to see how he was getting along with the other dog. when I picked him up He was nice and happy-naturally glad to see me- but still very happy with Tara. Their attention to detail was wonderful and I know he was taken care of with love. There was so much room for him to play and run and so many things to explore I know we had a terrific vacation with them. I am definitely going back.”

They were incredibly responsible and kept me updated with pictures and messages throughout the day. My dog was calm, happy, and excited when I returned, which is a huge relief. I highly recommend Christianna & Mary to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving sitter for their furry friend!”

“Erwin V. provided boarding services after we were informed that his primary caregiver would not be available. Erwin V. was very professional and provided superior service for the week that we were away. Although our dog experienced separation anxiety, Erwin V. gave him the attention and care that he needed. Erwin V. was also kind enough to allow our dog to be dropped off a day earlier at no charge.”
About: I’ve had dogs growing up my whole life, have two dogs, my 8 year old Pomeranian, Toby, and my 2 year old lab scout. We also have 3 cats; Finn, Sassy and sully I’m currently a stay at home mom raising my 14 month old son. He usually comes with me to do my rovers and does really well with animals as he has a bunch at home. He’s usually kept busy with toys or a movie while I do drop ins. We have house sitted before and he’s done well with that. My dogs are let out every two - four hours . My cats are fed twice daily once in the morning and again before bedtime but dry food is left out all day for grazing.
“Brooke is fabulous! She genuinely cares for the animals she cares for and treats them as if they were her own. I never have to worry that our dog is being well cared for. She always goes above and beyond and we are so appreciative of all that she does!”
“OMG I love Tanita & Terrence, and Max loved them as well. He had a wonderful time, and he met a friend. I would definitely used them again, and again. I went to see my daughter, and tht was the first time tht I had ever boarded Max, and I wasn't worried about Max at all. I knew he was in good loving hands. Thank you so much. ❤️”
“She was absolutely wonderful! She was very kind, communicative, and clearly cared a lot about my puppy. She kept me updated throughout the stay and sent lots of pictures, which really helped put my mind at ease while I was away. It made such a difference knowing my puppy was in good hands. I would definitely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful pet sitter. 🐾”
About: I've been a government K9 Handler since 2014. I have worked with dogs all different sizes and temperaments. I am trained in K9 Paramedicine and know the signs of an emergency and able to provide care and life saving measures before getting to a vet. I work early and get home early so I provide breaks before work, after work and throughout the evening. I only walk one k9 at a time to ensure safety for the K9 and myself. I have multiple crates in my house on different levels of my house. I keep the pets in separate cages so no incidents can happen. I have my own crates or ppl can provide their own.
“Kimberly took exceptional care of our pups! Highly highly recommend to anyone looking for an attentive care taker for your fur babies while away. I will not hesitate to call Ms. Kimberly again to watch Greta and Bow again.”

“Tara is amazing!! She and her family were so loving and attentive to our Diesel! Tara took great care in making sure Diesel was comfortable and safe with her dog and another dog in her care. Her home was clean and well organized, and her sweet family was icing on the cake. The love of this family shined through in everything from their warm welcome at the meet and greet to the consistent updates and pics sent throughout the stay. I highly recommend Tara and I am sure Diesel can't wait to stay again!”

Sarah was absolutely amazing! She watched my dog I.V. for 12 days, and I couldn't have asked for a better sitter. From the start, her communication was excellent—she sent plenty of pictures, daily updates, and made us feel totally at ease while we were away. Most importantly, I.V. was cared for like she was one of her own. She was happy, healthy, and clearly loved during her entire stay. Sarah went above and beyond in every way, and we are so grateful for the exceptional care she provided. I would 100% recommend Sarah to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and attentive dog sitter. We will absolutely book with her again—she’s a gem! 🐾💛

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
96% of sitters in Bushwood can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Bushwood home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Bushwood.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Bushwood. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Bushwood sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in MD ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
